during an episode of Stephen Fry in America he visited a renaissance fair (or some such place people dress up like idiots from centuries ago and play 'non-genocidal pilgrim' for the afternoon), and the overly plump, wide-thighed tour guide used the word 'artisinal,' in the middle of discussing some homemade crap they were proud of.

upon hearing the word one can tell that Fry's brain has just had a small orgasm (in a way that only a brit could have or comprehend after hearing an unfamiliar word), and ignoring etiquette he immediately compliments her outright, saying something like, 'oh, what a wonderful word to describe it!'
